How astrology can help you with your child.
Khalil Gibran, the Sufi mystic, expressed it beautifully when he said “Your children are not your children.They are the sons and daughters of Life’s longing for itself”.Gibran touched upon a profound psychological truth that is becoming more and more important for parents today. Obviously, we guide and shape our children’s lives. Yet they will inevitably ‘be who they will be’. In many ways, good parenting is about helping them open the doors to their own unique personality.
Astrologers these days are receiving more and more requests to interpret children’s charts. Astrology can help reveal to a person the path that they are likely to take in order to realize their potential. Likewise, it can also offer parents valuable insights on how to help their children become who they need to be.
Each one of us is a unique individual. The horoscope carries within itself the essence of who we are, suggesting how we are likely to respond to life’s graces and challenges in our own unique way. Children are no different. As Robert Hand says “The main purpose of astrology, especially for young people, is to help the individual learn who he or she really is and to accept it without being judgmental”. It would seem that parents these days feel that Hand is right.
You yourself may have already begun to explore what it is that makes you tick. Perhaps you have explored astrology, depth psychology or some other contemporary technique in the pursuit of greater self-awareness. After all, understanding your true character will help you make the most of your life.
Yet character gives us only part of the picture. Opportunity is another piece. And the environment in which we develop will also have a major impact upon who it is we become. Understanding the essential characteristics of our children, without judgement, means that we can provide the best opportunities and environment for them to become all that they have the potential to be
The greatest benefit to be gained from having your child’s chart done is to understand who they are more fully, as well as your interaction with them. The purpose is not to “find out who they will become”, if they will succeed, or fulfill one of your own buried aspirations. Nor is it a way to categorize or limit them. The beauty of understanding more fully what makes your child unique is that it will allow you to see more clearly who they are, how they relate to you, and what they may need from you in order to bring out the best of their abilities.
Our Child’s Astrology Report describes areas of innate strength and opportunity, as well as areas of stress and challenge. It describes the ways in which your child may relate to you as parents, and how they are likely to see themselves within the family unit. It will also point out significant years within their personal development when they may need extra care and attention to help them through episodes of personal growth. Each report is personally written by a trained astrologer, and not computer generated. It will become a valuable tool to help you navigate the joys and frustrations that may present in the years ahead.
Your full colour report can be emailed to you, or mailed out in a hard cover copy. The Child’s Astrology Report makes a great gift for any child, parent, grandparent or family member, and will offer you interesting insights for many years to come. As Khalil Gibran reminds us, we are here to help our children along the road to who they will become. Understanding a child’s horoscope throws more light along the way, and helps us to see them for the special and unique person that they are trying to become.
